Linkbar

while the month of august brings so many tasty foods to the table (tomatoes, corn, peaches) i don't think there is a taste more symbolic of summer in vermont than the unmistakable combination of chocolate, marshmallow and graham crackers, otherwise known as the s'more. (seriously, they are so addicting that the name came from the contraction of the phrase "some more") and today, we as a country celebrate the brilliance of this invention by giving this campfire treat its very own national holiday.

and in homage to the gooey deliciousness, i present you with some mouth watering images. (can we talk for a minute about how cute that packaging is!?)

but i have to admit my favorite find in my cyber searching today was this lovely DIY s'mores bar. how much would you love to attend a wedding or party with this as the elegant dessert finale?! who needs cake when you have a little fire and the magical and oh so simple trifecta of ingredients?!

Oh my gosh, how could I not know about this national holiday. Goodness. I love s'mores. There was a bar I used to frequent where you could order s'mores...they brought a little tray much like that pictured above. nothing like sitting in the middle of the city with friends toasting marshmallows over sterno in a bar. Seriously.
